we'll take a live look outside. traffic is flowing nicely. golden gate fields into the mcarthur maze. >> sue, thank you. breaking news this morning. two fires in hayward actually. we want to get to abc 7 news reporter amy holleyfield. a dramatic fire from last night and, amy, another one burning behind you? >> reporter: huge fire in hayward. behind the fire we were covering. i can tell that water is getting put on this one. it was a really big fire a few seconds ago. we can't tell what's burning. right next to homes where we saw lights getting turned on. people woke up and realized there was a fire outside their window. very dangerous embers shooting into the air. we saw some headed our way so we had to back up. firefighters were running to get to this when they saw it and they saw how big it was.

the tree was cashing on fire. now let me give you some perspective of how we discovered this. we're up here on an apartment balcony right down there is where there was a fire last night. this crew is here cleaning up from that fire when we discovered the one that's happening right now. so let me show you video from the fire we were originally covering. this one happened at 11:00 in hayward in an apartment complex on seventh street. three adults had to jump from the second floor window and then toss a 3-year-old child down to a grandmother below. the adults were taken to the hospital and are being treated for injuries. the child is okay. there are four units in this apartment building. there are five people in all who were home at the time. everyone did escape the fire safely. they don't know what caused it at this point. it looks like it started in the kitchen. it could have possibly been a cooking fire but because of it 12 people now need another place to stay because of smoke and water damage in the other units

and the one unit that is a total loss. now you're looking at a live picture of the fire that broke out a couple of minutes ago. is it a coincidence? probably. we certainly don't know at this point, but it sure seems like a strange coincidence. don't know how they could be related if the home fire started in a kitchen and this one looks like it's possibly a car. of course, once they get the fire out they will be looking into this strange timing of these two fires and we will keep you posted on what they find out. reporting live, amy hollyfield. thank you. a former ymca child care worker is scheduled to enter a plea. he's accused of assaulting girls 3 to 5. this morning a funeral service will be held for the 14-year-old girl who was killed by a train in martinez last
